February LOD PRD

love love love love! the b&w and pinks and oh this is beautiful!

@AnneofAlamo Thanks so much, Anne!! This is fast becoming one of my all time favorite series of photos!!

This really made me say 'Aww! ' we have these birds visit in flocks weekly, I've always just called them' pigeon doves' & it drives DD crazy (they look similar to another flock that has a crest & a red stripe near their eyes that we call 'top knot doves'), she reckons they're just doves but I don't think of them like that because they aren't white - we have this conversation on a weekly basis so I'll tell her they're mourning doves next time & switch up the argument lol!

@bellbird You just made me giggle! There are different doves, I'm sure, but these are Mourning Doves. This is the 3rd generation of the same family who has brought babies into the world right in my DD's backyard. They're so sweet and so tame because they know they're safe there.

Well isn't this just priceless!!!! What an awesome photo with the perfect bokeh. I like the pink contrast.

@Cherylndesigns yep ours are the same, the amount of time I worry about them being hit by a car by someone in the surrounding streets or nabbed by neigbhours cats is probably close to ridiculous b/c they are so chill & then slow to waddle/head bob out of the leafy gutters compared to other species but I do like their particular noises, compared to screechy & squwaky native galahs & cockies

The light & in camera heart capture is awesome too BTW!

@SharLamb Thanks so much, Shar.

@bellbird Thanks, Justine. That heart is priceless.

Amazing photo and layout.
